  • Title: The ethics of biodefense.
    Author: King NB.
    Journal: Bioethics; 2005 Aug; 19(4):432-46. PubMed ID: 16222858.
    Abstract:
    This essay reviews major areas of ethical debate with regard to biodefense, focusing on cases in which biodefense presents ethical problems that diverge from those presented by naturally-occurring outbreaks of infectious disease. It concludes with a call for ethicists to study not only the ethical issues raised in biodefense programs, but also the ethics of biodefense more generally.
